In July 2013, 35 year old Lavere Bryant decided that it would be fun to murder two young white people. He walked into a Dollar Store and killed a young white male employee execution style. He then abducted a beautiful young white female employee, who was later found dead.

Neither of the victims, Joseph Orlando and Brenna Machus, knew the killer. Both victims were only twenty years old.

If the races had been reversed, this would have been the biggest story in America. Instead it was a “hush crime.”

Bryant was just convicted of first degree murder. On December 11th he faces a mandatory term of life in prison without parole.

The conviction was just a tiny blip in the local news. Once again. Had the races been reversed, this would have been the trial of the year. Cable news networks would have been camped out in front of the courthouse. Instead the media would greatly prefer that no one knows it happened.
